This Is Real Rock 'N' Roll

Hey V-Man! This is real rock 'n' roll. I know DanS and Dudley1 are in agreement here. This is from the days of Sun Records and the old 45's. I remember seeing Jerry Lee on TV kicking away the piano bench and his hair hanging in his eyes. Then he married his 13 year old cousin and that pretty much torpedoed his career until he returned in the 70's and called himself Killer.

Was it the cousin part or the 13 part that got him in trouble, in any case it was legal.

Denny.......

Good old Jerry Lee.......As I recall, he has a couple of cousins who play a mean piano when so minded, Mickey Gilley the country gentleman & Jimmy Swaggart fallen evangelist who did not want to play piano cause it was devils music which would lead him into temptation..... must be kinda hard finding a hooker who is carrying around a baby grand & a mattress to double the temptation to allow Old Jimmy to fall off the religion wagon.

Anyway you are right... this is real R&R but Jerry Lee is just one of many who energized the music scene back in the 50`S.

Can't you just let me piss off as many people as possibly as simply as possible? That was easy work!

That's what I'm talking about!

As much as I disagree with you on most things, I will admit, you have great taste in music.
